The full-moon banquet was not held in a grand manner, and all the specifications and rituals were kept simple. In addition to the concubines in the harem, Empress Yu also invited women from various families to enter the palace.

Queen Yu's side was full of female relatives, so the male guests naturally drank with Yin Chengyu on the other side.

Thinking of Queen Yu and Yin Chengqian who were safe and sound on the other side, Yin Chengyu felt very good. He drank with everyone who came forward to toast him. His eyes were filled with a gentle smile, without any trace of gloom.

The second prince Yin Chengzhang and the third prince Yin Chengjing were sitting next to each other. Seeing this, he snorted and said in a low voice, "My brother is really lucky recently. So many things have happened in the court, but he has not been involved in any of them."

First, Empress Yu gave birth to a son safely. Although he is still young, he will surely help the crown prince when he grows up. Later, he made great contributions in the Yan Yin case, and even Emperor Longfeng, who had always been jealous of the crown prince, praised him. Not to mention that Yu Chen was implicated in the Yan Yin case later. It was thought that someone from the Yu family would be implicated, but who knew that he would come out of the Dali Temple prison unscathed.

I heard that the prince generously ordered people to send bedding and other supplies in, so Yu Chen ate, drank and slept well in there, without suffering any hardship at all.

Yin Chengjing shook his wine glass slowly, but did not respond. He stood up shakily and said, "I'll go and toast my brother."

The fool Yin Chengzhang thought that the prince was lucky to escape the disaster, but he didn't know that the prince was very scheming and had expected it. Not only did he escape his trap, but he also turned the tables on him.

It seems that the prince is not as calm and composed as he appears to be.

Yin Chengjing hid his deep thoughts and stepped forward to raise his cup to Yin Chengyu, saying, "My Royal Brother, you have solved the Changluo Salt Case this time. You are truly a role model for our generation. I offer you a toast."

Yin Chengyu glanced at him, his smile faded, and he raised his glass in return, saying meaningfully: "But it was all thanks to Fang Yushi. I didn't contribute anything."

The two smiled at each other and drank from each other. There was a faint smile in their eyes.

Afterwards, Yin Chengjing left Jiao Garden under the pretext of wanting to sober up.

When they were alone, Yin Chengjing's smile faded and turned gloomy. He stood up straight, not even a hint of drunkenness on his face: "Have you arranged everything?"

The young eunuch bowed his head respectfully and replied: "Everything has been arranged properly. There will be no problems."

Yin Chengjing then smiled with satisfaction: "Great, big brother is so happy, as your younger brother, I should give you a big gift to celebrate."

After saying this, he became dazed again, and leaned over the young eunuch, saying in a vague voice, "Send someone to tell my brother that I'm drunk and I'm going to find a place to rest first."

After hearing the young eunuch's message, Yin Chengyu did not care much about Yin Chengzhang's whereabouts.

He continued to deal with them for a while, but when he felt he was getting drunk, he left the table and went to the corridor outside to sober up.

Jiaoyuan is next to Taiye Lake, and a long snow-prisoning corridor is built along the edge of the lake, with willow trees planted outside the corridor. Walking along the corridor, people can see the swaying shadows of the trees and the sparkling water, which is quite interesting.

Yin Chengyu had just found a quiet place to sit down to sober up when he saw a graceful figure walking towards him from the other side.

The person on the other side seemed to be stunned for a moment when she saw him, then she quickly stepped forward with the help of the maid and bowed: "Hello, Your Highness."

She was dressed very simply, and her light blue skirt made her look even more delicate. Although she was tall, she was as delicate as a willow branch in spring, pale and delicate.

Looking at the person in front of him, Yin Chengyu felt a moment of strangeness, and then he vaguely remembered that this was his eldest sister, Yin Ciguang.

"Why didn't the eldest sister of the emperor have a drink in Jiao Garden but came here?" Yin Chengyu's eyes were a little complicated, and he looked at Yin Ciguang imperceptibly.

Yin Ci Guang's appearance was undoubtedly extremely beautiful, with an oval face, willow-shaped eyebrows, and especially a pair of outstanding eyes, but her eyes were always filled with sadness, and her face looked sickly and listless, which made her look a little less attractive.

She is one year older than Yin Chengyu and is Emperor Longfeng's first child.

Logically speaking, she was the first princess of Dayan and had an extremely noble status, but she did not have the title of princess until she was 19 years old, and she has not yet been arranged to marry.

Yin Chengyu remembered that in his previous life, Queen Yu had told him about Yin Ciguang's marriage.

It was said that neither she nor her birth mother, Concubine Rong, were favored by Emperor Longfeng, and they were always targeted by Concubine Wen Gui. Yin Ciguang herself was in poor health, so she could not find a suitable family. There were several times when a lady of high rank had proposed to marry the princess, but Concubine Rong cried and begged the empress to refuse.

Queen Yu had always been soft-hearted. After asking around, she realized that they were not a good family, so she just went with the flow and refused.

But if it keeps going on like this, it won't be a big deal.

At that time, Yin Chengyu also said that if they couldn't find someone they liked, it would be fine. The royal family could afford to support a princess.

Who knew that the world would change so quickly, and later Queen Yu died, the Yu family was destroyed, and he was imprisoned in the imperial mausoleum.

When he returned to the palace five years later and heard news about Yin Ciguang, the name had become a scandal in the royal family.

Yin Chengyu's gaze fell on Yin Ciguang's neck. The slender neck was completely covered by the vertical collar of the top, but if you looked carefully, you would find a slight bulge.

That is the Adam's apple that only men have.

In his previous life, he was imprisoned in the imperial mausoleum, and he only heard about many things after returning to the palace. Among them, the one who surprised him the most was Yin Ci Guang.

——Yin Ci Guang is not the eldest princess, but the eldest prince.

For some reason, Concubine Rong intentionally concealed Yin Ciguang's identity and raised him as a girl.

It is said that when Rongpin gave birth, she was young and the fetus was unstable, and she almost had a miscarriage. Later, she gave birth to the child with great difficulty, but she damaged her foundation and could not have children again, and the child also suffered from congenital deficiencies.

Yin Ciguang had been in very poor health since childhood, and he had to take medicine almost every day. He would hardly appear in public unless necessary. Even if he occasionally appeared, he would always lower his head and look submissive.

In the previous life, after Concubine Rong passed away, he also died of illness not long after.

Later, when the palace maid was preparing his body, she discovered the secret he had hidden during his lifetime, and the matter was reported to Emperor Longfeng.

Emperor Longfeng had never had much affection for Yin Ciguang and her son, and he was even more furious when he heard about this. He sentenced them so badly that the mother and son were not even allowed to enter the royal mausoleum and were hastily buried.

Yin Chengyu had almost no impression of this "imperial sister" who had little presence. In his previous life, she had never spoken a word to him until his death.

But perhaps it was because of sympathy towards one's own kind. Now when he looked at him again, there was a little more sympathy in Yin Chengyu's eyes.

If he guessed correctly, Rongpin disguised him as a girl just to protect him.

Rongpin was of humble status. She was originally a dancer in the Imperial Music Bureau. She was favored by Emperor Longfeng because of her outstanding dancing skills and became pregnant with his child. She was then promoted to the position of concubine.

But unfortunately, Concubine Wen was pregnant at the same time as her, but she miscarried soon after. Therefore, Concubine Wen always believed that Rongpin's child had brought bad luck to her child, and she had been targeting Rongpin for many years.

At that time, the Empress Dowager was not pregnant yet. If Concubine Rong really gave birth to a boy, he would be the eldest prince. I am afraid that Concubine Wen would not be able to tolerate them at all.

"The eldest sister is weak, and the spring wind is cold, so it's better for her to avoid the cold wind."

Rongpin's sincere heart reminded Yin Chengyu of Empress Yu. In his previous life, his mother was like this when she risked her life to send Yin Chengyu away.

Yin Ciguang looked up at him in surprise, then quickly lowered her eyes and whispered, "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I just wanted to come out to look for my mother."

Yin Chengyu nodded slightly, said nothing more to him, and stepped aside to make way.

Yin Ci Guang bowed again, and with the help of his maid, he slowly went to the other end.

"Tell Madam Zhao to prepare more medicinal herbs for the eldest princess in the future. If you have time, ask the imperial physician to go over and take a look." After the people walked away, Yin Chengyu instructed Zheng Duobao beside him.

He was not in a position to interfere in the affairs of the harem, and did not want to worry his mother, so he could only ask Nanny Zhao, who was by his mother's side, to take good care of her.

Although Zheng Duobao didn't understand why he suddenly cared about this princess with whom he had no relationship, he still agreed. For concubines and princesses like these who were not favored, the treatment they received in the palace was determined by the words of their masters.

Yin Chengyu glanced at the figure in the distance again, frowned and said, "Concubine Wen is too arrogant."

Zheng Duobao groaned and whispered, "I heard that the eunuchs and ladies in Jingren Palace have been trembling with fear these days, and broken porcelain has been cleaned up every day. The Empress gave birth to a dragon son, and that person must be holding back his anger."

Yin Chengyu said, "Ask someone to keep an eye on it," and turned back to the table.

Seeing him coming back, Yin Chengzhang came forward with a wine jug and wanted to drink with him.

Yin Chengyu had just met Yin Ciguang, so he was no longer in a good mood when he looked at him again. He just took the wine glass and drank three cups with him.

Yin Chengzhang casually threw the wine pot to the eunuch beside him, returned to the table and sat down, drunkenly saying to the eunuch who was serving him: "Oh, look at his eyes, he clearly wants to eat me, but he still has to put on a smiling face and drink with me, he is really good at pretending."

The personal eunuch looked around nervously, and only heaved a sigh of relief when he saw no one was paying attention. He whispered, "There are people on both sides, Your Highness, please stop talking..."

Yin Chengzhang then reluctantly stopped talking, poured himself another glass of wine and drank it in silence.

Yin Chengyu drank three glasses of wine and just as he sat down at the table, he felt a heat rising from his dantian and his head felt dizzy for a moment.

His heart sank and he immediately realized something was wrong, so he turned around and wanted to call Zheng Duobao.

But Zheng Duobao, who had just been following him, was nowhere to be seen. He pressed his forehead and thought for a moment, and he knew that something might be fishy.

An endless stream of heat surged up from Dantian, eroding the mind.

This feeling was very familiar to Yin Chengyu. He tried to stay calm, stood up, and walked out quickly without saying a word.

As soon as he left Jiao Garden, a young eunuch came up to him and wanted to help him. Yin Chengyu pushed the man away angrily and quickened his pace to the east - there was a banquet in Jiao Garden today, and Xue Shu was also on duty nearby.

Yin Chengyu managed to stay awake, and after walking around for a while, he finally found the person. He called him over in a hoarse voice: "Xue Shu."

Xue Shu walked forward without knowing what was going on, but he was grabbed by the arm tightly: "Take me away."

"Where are you going, Your Highness?" Xue Shu supported him and sensitively noticed that something was wrong. Yin Chengyu's breath was extremely hot and he smelled of alcohol.

"Whatever." Yin Chengyu tightly grasped his arm and pinched his palm with his other hand. He relied on the pain to keep his mind clear.

Xue Shu realized the problem, and quickly moved away from the crowd, and helped him to the side hall of Chongzhi Hall not far away.

When he was about to push the door open, Yin Chengyu grabbed him and said cautiously, "Check if there is anyone inside."

Xue Shu pushed the door open and quickly checked. After confirming that no one was there, he helped him in.

As soon as Yin Chengyu entered the room, he let go of him, walked quickly to the table, picked up the teapot on the table, and poured it into his mouth in big gulps without caring whether the tea in it had been changed.

He finished a whole pot of tea, and then calmly ordered Xue Shu: "Go get some more water, and come back quickly."

Xue Shu opened his mouth and wanted to ask something, but was shouted at: "Go!"

He had never seen Yin Chengyu speak so harshly before, so he could only quickly get out and get him some tea.

After he left, Yin Chengyu locked the door vigilantly, then found a big-bellied vase and bent over to induce vomiting.

When Xue Shu came back, he had already vomited several times, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, and there was still some redness on his face, but his eyes were much clearer.

Yin Chengyu did not speak to him. He took the teapot from his hand and continued to pour water in it.

At this time, Xue Shu also reacted and guessed that he might have been drugged. Seeing him like this, his Adam's apple rolled several times, and finally he couldn't help but said: "I can help Your Highness."

Yin Chengyu paused and turned to look at him. Because of his extreme forbearance, the corners of his eyes were red from suppression, and his voice became hoarse from vomiting: "You help me?"

There was something strange in his tone, and his gaze towards Xue Shu became extremely harsh, as if he was seeing someone else through him.

Xue Shu opened his mouth to speak, but Yin Chengyu smiled and pointed to the center of the hall, saying, "Kneel down."

Xue Shu looked at him for a long while, and could only walk to the place he pointed and kneel down.

Yin Chengyu looked at him coldly for a moment, took off his wet robe and threw it on the ground, then turned around and went behind the screen.

This side hall was usually unoccupied, and only had the Imperial Concubine's couch and the Arhat bed for people to take a nap. Yin Chengyu lay down on them exhausted, gasping for breath with his eyes half closed.

He drank a lot of water and induced vomiting. The drug was no longer so strong and not enough to corrode his mind, but even with the slight effect of the drug, the taste was still unbearable.

Yin Chengyu bit his arm hard and could only relieve the effects of the medicine on his own.

Occasionally, when he turned his head to the side, he could see the figure reflected on the screen - Xue Shu was still kneeling there.

Yin Chengyu closed his eyes irritably, but couldn't help thinking about his previous life.

He had been poisoned by drugs, more than once.

He lost consciousness the first time, and when he awoke he found himself lying with a woman. Before he could figure out what was going on, a crowd of people kicked down the door to catch him in adultery, accusing him of having an affair with a concubine and committing an immoral act.

But he didn't even see what the woman looked like at that time.

The second time was shortly after he returned to the palace. He was tricked when he left the palace. Xue Shu heard the news and rushed over. He called two women and asked him to choose with a smile: "Your Highness, do you want them or our family?"

The drug was very strong and he was almost unconscious at the time, but he still gritted his teeth and grabbed Xue Shu's sleeve.

Afterwards, he rested outside the palace for three days.

Xue Shu ordered his men to arrest all the people in the restaurant and interrogate them one by one, and finally found the person who drugged the patient.

Having been reborn and escaped a disaster, Yin Chengyu never thought that someone would actually use such a despicable trick.

After experiencing this twice, he became particularly sensitive to this kind of thing. He was almost certain that the problem was the wine that Yin Chengzhang gave him. But no matter how stupid Yin Chengzhang was, he would not personally drug him.

That probably leaves only Yin Chengjing left.

Maybe in some room of Chongzhi Palace, there was a woman prepared for him. If he hadn't been prepared, he might have been lying unconscious on the couch of some unlucky concubine.

Yin Chengyu groaned, and after a long while, he sat up.

After overcoming the effects of the drug, he regained consciousness.

Taking out a handkerchief and slowly drying his hands, Yin Chengyu walked barefoot around the screen and looked down at Xue Shu: "Go, find me some clean clothes, and then secretly send someone to search to see if there is anyone else in this palace."

Jiao Yuan was far from the harem, and there was only one Chongzhi Hall nearby for him to rest. If the other party wanted to plot against him, they would most likely do so in this Chongzhi Hall.

Xue Shu raised his eyes to look at him, only to find that his lips were redder than usual, and the scent of snow ridge plum on his body seemed to be mixed with other scents.

There is an indescribable desire in the coldness.

He didn't dare to look anymore, lowered his eyes, responded, and quickly retreated.
